After Two Days of Much-Needed Rain

 

After two days of much-needed rain:  

 

bowl overflows

all of nature drinks

cardinals sing

* * * * * 

 

burnt grasses 

now, luscious wet greens 

rain restores  

* * * * * 

 

walking date  

sisters walk in puddles 

never grow old 

***** 

under cherry tree
birdbath overflows
cardinals joyous

* * * * * *

birdbath overflows 

a rainy night's reservoir 

sparrows splash
